You know what i think :)

I don't think you should be planning any mods on this car until you pass your test and start paying for it.

You need to save up for one as going to cost you alot and remember its your first car within a year of passing this car probably won't be fast enough or good enough your be growing out it by then. It is only 1.2 and is very sluggish like my punto is and my boyfriends.

Unless you get a engine change i think you will grow out of this car very quickly.

As your mum is paying for it and like you said to me she don't like the idea of alloys so until you start paying i wouldn't make any plans.

Plus it will hit you bad aswell when you start paying for your own petrol thats what gets me i can pay the car and insurance it's the petrol which makes me tight for money near end of month. Alot of £5s went in when i was still at college lol but i worked my arse off at weekends to pay for my car.

I've been driving nearly 2years and 3cars later i've only just found a car im happy with and am willing to spend money on it.
